"Of the three sorts of knowledge proper to a child, the knowledge of God, of man, and the universe,----the knowledge of God ranks first in importance, is indispensable, and most happy-making." - Charlotte Mason

Philippians 4:4-8

4Rejoice in the Lord always [delight, please yourselves in Him]; again I say, Rejoice!﻿5 Let all men know and perceive and recognize your unselfishness (your considerateness, your forbearing (patient, understanding)﻿spirit. The Lord is near [He is coming soon].6 Do not fret or have any anxiety about anything, but in every circumstance and in everything, by prayer and petition (definite requests), with thanksgiving, continue to make your wants known to God.7 And God’s peace [shall be yours, that tranquil state of a soul assured of its salvation through Christ, and so fearing nothing from God and being content with its earthly lot of whatever sort that is, that peace] which transcends all understanding shall secure and mount guard over your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.8 For the rest, brother, whatever is true, whatever is worthy of great respect and is honorable and right, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely and lovable, whatever is kind and pure and gracious, if there is any virtue and excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think on and consider, and take account of these things [fix your minds on them].
